No, you have to be in pretty good shape to be wearing that suit


I dunno, I think one of those suits might be a very effective weight-loss tool. Think about all the pounds you can sweat off!

I'd do it.

I was just saying how most people think of Godzilla. I know suit actors are in good shape and everything.

I think Dean Devlin said something about Godzilla being a fat guy in a rubber suit.

Stop giving me reasons to hate the man. I already have my hands full with the movie.

Well, he's Dean Devlin. Not the general public.

Ha! :)

Nakajima was pretty fit before even being able to fit into that suit. He was in the suit under hot lights, in a 200lb suit, and had a car battery between his legs (so they could move the mouth etc). Can't be out of shape to pull that off

It was hard work being in those suits. You had to be strong to move around in them.

Wait, what? Who told you that? The original suit - the only one that was that heavy - had a manually controlled head. A car battery?

What's the big deal with KING KONG VS. GODZILLA getting remade? I think it's fine the way it is...

There are certain films from the Showa era that I think would benefit from being redone as animated films. King Kong vs. Godzilla is one of them.

The only remake for a Toho daikaiju film that would actually work is Varan the Unbelievable.
King Kong vs Godzilla is fine as it is.

I'd much rather see a sequel than a remake. Then it wouldn't be so bad when the writers f@ck the storyline up and start adding in a bunch of garbage like they do with so many other remakes. CGI King Kong and Godzilla? Not my personal preference, but it would be interesting if only once.

Agreed, Varan is one of my favorite kaiju, but his movie was quite lackluster - he deserves a remake. It probably won't ever happen, though. Hell, it's hard enough to get him in a Godzilla film, so the chances of another Varan solo movie are pretty much zero.
